The School of Management Sciences (SMS) Varanasi, established in 1995, is a distinguished institution that seamlessly blends the essence of a modern business school with the wisdom of traditional academia. Situated in the sacred city of Varanasi, also known as Kashi, SMS Varanasi emerged during a transformative era in India’s economic landscape, coinciding with the nation’s early years of economic liberalization. As the first self-financed institution of its kind in the region, it was warmly welcomed and has since established itself as a center of excellence in management education.
